Tosca - Carleton
Tosca
Description
Experience at the restaurant was mixed. While some dishes were good, they were also expensive. The seafood linguini lacked flavor and the pizza was missing some key ingredients. The coffee was extremely bitter. On a positive note, the Mateo Mule was enjoyable. The service was impeccable, with personal recommendations for wine pairings. Despite some shortcomings, the pasta and antipasto were delicious. The owner was hands-on and made the dining experience special. Though not spectacular, the meals were enjoyable. The restaurant also offers a nice wine selection and local beer. Overall, a decent option for Italian cuisine.

The food was good but pricey. We drank a very good wine suggested by the sommelier, but the suggestion didn't fit with the meal. There was plenty of very good wine on the card, we would have been better served in choosing ourselves. Besides, the seafood pizza was good, but not excellent and with very little seafood on the topping. The salad was good but very simple and expensive for what we got. This is not the best Italian restaurant I went to, but not necessarily a very bad choice if you don't care about what you will pay.
We paid $11 for a small portion of white wine and a Piccata dish that lacked lemon flavor and was overly oily, despite requesting minimal butter or oil. Despite the disappointing start, we were eventually able to order a satisfactory vegetarian pizza after flagging down our server.
The service was good. Pasta is priced at $25-30. The dishes were lacking in flavor. Really disappointing. I do not recommend this place. How can carbonara pasta in an Italian restaurant taste like nothing at all?
Expensive for what you get. Lacks flavor and could be more creative in its menu. Beautiful atmosphere and friendly staff.
